Thank you man, I really appreciate the effort to create this video, I could replace the battery, and also didn't know about the nvme slots, perfect to upgrade to a new disk also ssd. Big thanks .

thank you so much just got the same from sister, wanted to clean it out and put in a new 2TB SSD for the D drive,,,,,,, thank you my brother
Awesome! If you haven't already, please like and subscribe so others can find my videos. Thanks!
@@ItsBinhRepaired done both mate
Thanks!
Surprisingly for this laptop you don't need to really separate the screws that much.. I kept mine all in a bowl together when I took my 17 r3 apart to clean it and replace a fan.. most of the screws on this thing are p screws.. the only ones you really gotta pay attention to are some of the smaller ones but aside from that easy disassembly and even easier assembly. Love this laptop
Best to always keep them in order even if they all look the same.
hey ik this an old video but im having trouble putting back the the backlight and keyboard back in the latches anyway on how to put it back
I didn't show it in the video?
Gave it a thumbs up for the raid I didn't know lol oh well I got a 4tb ssd also any ram works for it only ddr4 260 pin I've tried 2 different types the max is 32 gb but I want to upgrade the cpu and gpu, I wanted to see how the inside looks like. Cool video.
Glad it helped! If you haven't already, please subscribe as well. It helps make my videos easier for others to find. Thanks!
The battery pack in my Alienware 17 R3 is running really hot to the touch when plugged in does that mean I should remove the battery?
Probably
I have an Alienware M17xR3. Hard drive 0 died. I bought an ssd upgrade kit. How do I transfer the files to the ssd from the HD if it won't boot?
If the hard drive is dead, you'll have to send it to 300dollardatarecovery.com
Can the 17 R3 work without a battery? I can't seem to find a replacement. Thanks
Not sure, try it.
You're underrated
Thanks! Yeah, I think CZcams isn't recommending my channel enough yet. Maybe in 2-4 years :)
I'm not so much underrated as I am undiscovered. Haha I'm pretty well known in the bay area outside of CZcams for repairs.
Hi, I know this is an older video but would you happen to know where the PCI Adapter on this model laptop would be? I’ve got an error code for it and need to reseat it
No idea. The SSD?
Or the wireless card
@@ItsBinhRepaired It won’t boot, So I’m assuming it’s the SSD as the OS is installed on there.
@@ItsBinhRepaired Nevermind! Appear to have fixed it. I unscrewed, unplugged then plugged the SSD back in and it’s working again. Thanks for the great video!
@@vintageseinfelddvd backup your data to be safe.
Thanks to your video I've been able to replace the battery. When I go to power on the laptop there is no response. I plug it in and the alien head light blinks green (charging) but still unable to power on. I went back through the entire process and I'm still unable to get it to power on. Any thoughts on this?
After powering it on, how long did you leave it sitting?
Got it! Make sure to check the power connection on the keyboard. It may come loose. Hahah
Sent you some money. Thanks for the video. Greatly appreciated
@@adam323638 LOL glad you figured it out. I was wondering who sent me money and what for. Hahaha Thanks!
Bro I'm going to replace the Hard drive with a 2TB SSD because I need more room on my C drive than 225GB or whatever it is. So that big 2.5 inch drive you pulled out in the beginning (the one I am replacing) is that the C drive? Or is it everything including the D drive?
If yours is exactly the same, then C drive is the m.2 drive, 2.5" is D drive most likely.
@@ItsBinhRepaired DAMN. Thank you. M.2 drive is one of the little sticks?
@@ItsBinhRepaired I Bought a 2,5 inch 2 tb to replace C. Thats not possible?
@@ItsBinhRepaired Or its not possible to install this new 2.5 inch drive and have programs run on it instead of C drive?
@@cedricwilliams6229 yup, if you haven't already, please like and subscribe so others can find my videos. Haha possibly donate to help with my currently broken clavicle (collar bone) making work extra difficult. Lol Work is going to be rough over the next few weeks.

HI @It's Binh Repaired , I have only one single HDD with only C drive on my computer.
Q1) I Am planning to replace this HDD with 2.5 SDD but with a bigger capacity. I believe I will have to only clone the HDD to my new 2.5" SSD and then replace it so that the 2.5" SSD now becomes bootable.
Q2) But If I plan to replace the HDD with a new M.2 SSD. what do i need to do ? How do i clone and remove the HDD so that i can make the M.2 SSD bootable and use it. ?
This is the video you want. czcams.com/video/4p5jFDzVwUw/video.html
Can I upgrade ram on the Alienware 17 R3? To like 32 or 64? Please answer i need to know.
If you can fit it. The video should show how many slots are available.
@@ItsBinhRepaired Thanks for responding. I believe i have the same model as you however which Ram Brand do i buy? Or how do i know its the right one that fits? Do you have any websites?
Like do i just go to amazon and order 2x 32 Gb Ram for laptop. Or is there a certain brand for each laptop
@@nasoncruz1069 if it's the same model, this is the max you can do. amzn.to/3hDj6uN
Okay thank you. But how do i find the correct Ram cards for other computers. How did you do it? With the model number?
NVME SSD will fit here? FOr example Samsung 960?
How much of the video did you watch?
@@ItsBinhRepaired not all. When you start disassemble it, I stop watching. I didn't heard answer on this question before.
@@obiektywny_turysta then I suggest you watch the video first. I don't appreciate people that can't even bother to watch the video I took the time to make and then expect answers. I don't want it to be seen as an acceptable way to interact. Imagine if everyone that came to my videos did that.
@@ItsBinhRepaired i do that and still- no answer. You just said its m2 port there
@@obiektywny_turysta at what time stamp?
Ram mut dikah qaulity or pairing loadki

Okay!!!
Hm?
Konsi salka model he Jawan model to nahi 2017
No idea.
I dont mean to bombard you with questions man but I've got one more. Sorry man. Alienware 17 r3.... If I power it down all the way, every once in a while it will not fully boot. Lights all turn on and fans but no screen and the fans are on low speed.... Im not sure about this and I really don't want to brick it as its my favorite thing ever to this day as I keep it very clean....
Hmmm not sure
bro which years r3 is this?
I worked on too many. I don't remember.
Is the 17in
its the 2015, same model as mine
i'm so disappointed in the alienware r3 i got recently because i'm under the impression i can't do upgrades on it & i'm returning it soon
Most likely just hard drive and RAM
@@ItsBinhRepaired can't upgrade the ram now days, they are hardwired to the motherboard
U can actually
Upgrade
Not sure exactly what u want to upgrade
